Jac Caglianone Commits to Italy for 2026 World Baseball Classic

Royals rookie Caglianone confirmed, “I’m gonna play with Italy… I’ve been talking to Italy for years.” Puerto Rico reached out “only a couple months ago.” A 2024 first-round pick, he rose quickly through the minors but is hitting .150 with 5 homers in MLB. Italy face Brazil, Great Britain, USA and Mexico in Pool B at Houston.
